Posted : 23 June 2023
In a captivating transfer battle, two prominent clubs from the Spanish top-flight, Barcelona and Villarreal, are embroiled in a fierce competition to secure the signing of Ibrahim Oseni, a talented Nigerian-born attacking midfielder with immense potential and the prospect of representing the Flying Eagles national team in the near future.
At the tender age of a teenager, Oseni has garnered considerable attention for his abilities, positioning him as a player to watch in the footballing world.
His recent departure from Joy Cometh Football Club, Lagos, through mutual consent, has paved the way for his journey to Spain, where he will undergo trials with both Barcelona and Villarreal, offering him an opportunity to showcase his skills to the two esteemed clubs.
Demonstrating their commitment to the player's development, Joy Cometh Football Club, Lagos, has displayed their utmost support by waiving their rights to training compensation and solidarity contribution, as stipulated in FIFA's regulations on the status and transfer of players, prioritizing Oseni's best interests.
Barcelona, having closely observed Oseni during this period, have expressed their keen interest in acquiring his services.
However, they face stiff competition from their La Liga counterparts, Villarreal, who have their youth team coaches meticulously evaluating the young Nigerian talent, considering the possibility of signing him once he reaches the age of majority.
Born in April 2006, Oseni brings versatility to the table, as he exhibits proficiency both as an offensive midfielder and on the flanks, showcasing his adaptability and potential to excel in different positions within the team.
